Good for end user, not good for the back end users **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2018 **What do you like best about Insignia Library System?** Good for end users, but not good for back end users (the people who use it to create records). End users can see changes in the catalogue right away. Web-based program, so we are no longer server-reliant. Theoretically, can use Insignia anywhere from any computer **What do you dislike about Insignia Library System?** This program has a LOT of mousing would be so much better if they can introduce more keyboard shortcuts. I have noticed a considerable difference when we switched over to Insignia, that there are more screens to click through when creating a record. This increases overall time spent of an individual record. Importing French records continues to be an issue with the diacritics never displaying properly. **What problems is Insignia Library System solving and how is that benefiting you?** Web based program, less prone to down time than a server based program. ### 2. Intuitive, easy to use library automation software **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2017 **What do you like best about Insignia Library System?** Insignia has a simple, highly customizable interface. The administrative end is easy to learn and navigate, even for someone without significant cataloging experience. The company is very responsive and support is top-notch. The price point is competitive in relation to similar software. **What do you dislike about Insignia Library System?** There is very little I dislike! I'm looking forward to seeing how the company will continue to refine options to make the interface more interactive, and to improve search and resource collection tools. **Recommendations to others considering Insignia Library System:** I recommend this system, particularly for large systems with many users that may not have the opportunity to educate their users face-to-face on the nuances of their catalog, simply because it's very easy to use. **What problems is Insignia Library System solving and how is that benefiting you?** This product replaced an outdated system and breathed new life into our library catalog. We are able to provide our users with a more intuitive experience, and share customized resource lists easily with wide audiences. Users can refine their searches easily to find the right resources to meet their information-seeking needs. ## Insignia Library System Discussions - [How to a capture a screen snapshot?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-to-a-capture-a-screen-snapshot) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [View Insignia Library System pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/insignia-library-system/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-06+22%3A09%3A39+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=dd53dc9c-521b-4a31-90db-81ed40ecc84c&secure%5Btoken%5D=21701b5e29c4cd0419c7f3d7fe89f93219441556b34935e9c3a38c45a7f949da&format=llm_user) ## Top Insignia Library System Alternatives - [Follett Destiny Library Manager](https://www.g2.com/products/follett-software-follett-destiny-library-manager/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (430 reviews) - [SirsiDynix Symphony](https://www.g2.com/products/sirsidynix-symphony/reviews) - 3.7/5.0 (16 reviews) - [Atriuum ILS](https://www.g2.com/products/atriuum-ils/reviews) - 4.9/5.0 (109 reviews)
